Is there any way of putting the stock vanilla UI seen on the Verizon models on the R800i GSM models?
Thanks in advance

Yeah all you need to do is download launcher2.apk (Stock google launcher). I did a quick google search and found the gingerbread version in a SGS II Vanilla rom. When i download it, i will upload it here. You will need root and insecure ADB to install it though. As you have to push it to /system/app/ before it will work
You can download Gingebread Launcher from the Market, it's free and it's actually the stock launcher.
Logseman's idea sounds best to me. But if you still want it here is the .apk.
To install just fire up ADB and type in:
adb remount
adb push launcher2.apk /system/app
adb reboot
So this will completely replace the Timescape UI with the stock vanilla google UI like on the R800x models?

No you can install as many launchers as you want. The OS will ask you to pick a default one. It will then freeze the rest, you can easly use another launcher by finding your current default one in manage applictions. And tapping on "clear defaults". next time you press the home button. The OS will ask you to pick another default launcher
OMG you guys are champions!
I downloaded Android 2.3 Launcher and its exactly like my Nexus S 2.3.4!
Thanks heaps guys your all awesome!!

I havent had any problems with root explorer. Ive used it to move files from dropbox to folders, delete bloatware, create folders for ringtones/notifications that i imported and install a few .apk's. Is there something i'm missing or should keep an eye out for?

Mind sharing the modified mms.apk? What is exactly "modified"?

Here is the link that explains the added features and the download link. The only thing i can't get to work is the colors of the led aside from that works just as stock.

i also was able to use it before.. not sure if the update or kernel i'm running now killed it
I was able to install but it removes messaging app from dock. Anyone else with this issue? FYI this mod app LETS you send/receive mms while on wifi
I must not be following the terminal instructions correctly. when I type the cp command line it tells me that cp is not found.

Yeah I'm running a custom touchwiz where you can edit the bottom defaults and the apps. The new Mms.apk does remove the messaging icon, but with the custom touchwiz launcher that I'm using you can put the Mms icon back.

I will post it whenever I get out of class. The only issues I had with this touchwiz launcher is that the google search widget is overally large and the samsung widgets do not load. So I deleted the samsung widgets.

So just the icon in touchwiz gets broken? Everything else works?
The custom touchwiz launcher I had didn't look right. The dock icons were smaller and widgets didn't fit the screen right. Anyone have one that doesn't have these issues

Hi guys
Here is the stock CM10.1 launcher Trebuchet (25/3) downsized to 960 kb approx.
Also LatinIME.apk [25/3] (english only) for CM10.1.
Plus English only keyboard [LatinIME.apk] for CM11
Copy to /system/app, give permissions as rw-r--r--, reboot and enjoy
For CM10, rename it to Trebuchet.apk and do the above.

Of course can not perform that because Launcher is not exist in Settings, that's why I tried other methods. I wonder why almost every launchers (include official Trebucket) can access launcher setting from context menu by pressing menu button from homescreen (or app drawer) while this version lack that.
Does it support only CM10 or other Android 4.1.2 ROM?

I have tried it on CM10 and it works great
but it was a month ago.
I believe the launcher settings only appears if you have only one launcher, which must be trebuchet. If you have two trebuchets (or two or more launchers of any kind), then launcher settings will disappear.

Unluckily, after removing other launchers and reboot my phone, Launcher Settings still dont appear.
When I flash CM10 and install other launcher, I easily access Laucher Settings from all installed launchers.

it is somewhat faster because of its small size, but it is an individual opinion since there is no benchmark to compare Launchers

that is strange indeed..
since its from build 7 and no other build has been released (except the non booting Jenkins one), you might have to wait till Rashed releases Build 8..
or if you have the Trebuchet from that build, can you give the link please ??
@everyone should I release trimmed LatinIME.apk (English) for CM10.1 ??
Re: [APP][CM10.1] Trebuchet slimmed down
Yea please i really need it the normal one cost me more than 10Mb and i has slow space please release the keyboard

Is there a way to get the trebuchet launcher from CM on the stock samsung firmware? I don't mind waiting for a CM port if/when it happens, but i really miss the trebuchet launcher. Is there an APK somewhere i could sideload?
I've tried the bazooka launcher (a clone that's in the play store)...it's just not the same.
Have you tried or is it possible to pull the launcher apk from the custom rom?
There seems to be an apk here for it you can try or if someone with the device would like to test

Why not give Nova a try? It's built on the same open source code as Trebuchet, and it has many additional features and options. You can find it on the Play Store.

Nova is all I've ever used. Grabbed the paid version when it was being offered for free I think.
@mattdm
He asked where to get trebuchet. Not for other options. If you don't have an answer, then don't answer. When we want nova launcher we will ask.
Straight from our 5/30 build: http://www.2shared.com/file/aQDpjDJr/Trebuchet.html?
1) download
2) install like any other app (no root required)
3) press home button
4) make trebuchet your default launcher
5) enjoy

Just wondering if there is any way to get the 4.4.3 dialer on my Note 3. Unfortunately, I'm not rooted and already on 4.4.2 so rooting is out.
I really like that dialer, or even the 4.4.2 AOSP dialer will work. Can one of these be installed without root? I can't stand the TouchWiz Dialer.
Thanks for the help in advance.
No not without root. The dialer app is written to either /system/app or /system/priv-app which would both require root access to modify or replace with another.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Just wondering though, how is it all of the Play Store "Dialer apps" work?
Can't the 4.4.3 AOSP just be configured like that or something?
Thanks.

No well some dialers in the play store require root and some may not and just replace your stock dialer. Well not replace, just will give you the option to choose it. Kinda like how you can have multiple launchers and when you press the home button (assuming you haven't set one as a default) it will ask you which launcher you want to use. The same thing happens in certain situations when you have Skype installed. When you want to dial a phone number from let's say a link in chrome or the default browser, and if you have skype installed, it will ask you which program you wish to use to dial the phone number.
What if I were on 4.4.2 and am rooted? Where can I find the proper files and what would I do to replace them? Thanks for any help you can offer!

I've messed with it a bit and can't get it working on a rooted device, I've tried a few different methods.
Seems like theming is no longer possible on WW_14.2020.1703. All themes can't be downloaded, instead, it sends 'waiting' message that seems to last forever. Anyone experiencing this? If by any chance. SystemUI apk from earlier version of android N could be shared, preferably from 1701, it would be much appreciated. I'd like to go back to a theme that brings me closest to stock android quick setting appearance.

If you have rooted, just disable themes app, change the apk in system with an older version released at the end of last year, enable and wipe data. If app crashes, wipe theme app data, disable, reboot and enable.

Icon packs does a better job for that. You don't need themes. I prefer icon pqcks from Sourabh Gupta. He updates icons frequently and all his icon packs has 5700+ icons. His latest Android O Icon Pack is pretty awesome. It is paid though.

I'm afraid that's not possible without root unless Asus re-enable the option in future update. I think the transparency of quick setting might cause issue(s) with currently available themes. And you're right, quick setting with the rounded toggles and notifs, especially in lock screen, are painfully ugly.
